Album Description
Available in:
The Mindsweep is the fourth studio album by Enter Shikari, released on 19 January 2015. It was recorded in 2014 with producer Dan Weller.
On 26 June 2014 the band performed their new song "Anaesthetist" for the first time and uploaded a video on their Youtube Channel of them doing a practice run. Then they played it all of the dates that they played on Vans Warped Tour.
The album was announced on 8 October 2014, along with a European and UK tour in support.
On 20 October 2014, "The Last Garrison" was played on Zane Lowe's Hottest Record on BBC Radio 1, and was the first single off of the album. The song's official music video was uploaded to Hopeless Records' YouTube channel on 11 November. Enter Shikari streamed the song "Never Let Go of the Microscope" on their YouTube channel on November 26, then released the video for "Slipshod", an iTunes-only bonus track, on 15 December through the same channels.
On 19 December Enter Shikari announced a Headlining North American tour in support of The Mindsweep with Stray From the Path, I the Mighty, Hundredth (band) (3/23-3/31) and A Lot Like Birds (4/01-4/28).
On 5 January 2015 "Anaesthetist" was released as the second single taken from the album.
On 12 January, the full album was streamed online. On, 19 January 2015 the album was officially released.
When writing lyrics for the album, frontman Rou Reynolds researched the topics he addressed, such as climate change and the global financial crisis, to make sure he was making accurate statements.
When choosing "which of the tracks they've been working on should make it on to ", Enter Shikari found it hard to decide. Therefore, they made a graph where "the vertical axis charted the heaviness of the songs the horizontal one their location on a scale ranging from 'accessible' to 'experimental'", and "where clusters indicated several songs covering the same territory, only one was allowed to make the cut", so that the album would feature something "from everywhere within spectrum of sounds."
The Mindsweep has been described as a post-hardcore album which contains elements of many of genres including experimental rock, punk rock, dubstep, drum and bass, electronic rock, mathcore, alternative rock, alternative metal, british hip-hop, neoclassical, trip hop and many others.
Kerrang! Magazine called The Mindsweep the band's "most diverse album to date", contrasting the "punk thrash" of "There's a Price on Your Head" with "Dear Future Historians...", which they described as a "Radiohead-esque piano ballad". They also compared the style of "Anaesthetist" to that of the Prodigy.
